the sounds of disaster document the past few years of end’s life. a time of shootings, home invasions, and near fatal accidents. outrageous, epic, nihilistic, and absurd, the sounds of disaster is the soundtrack to a world of b-movie fantasies where hydrogen bombs, hippie death cults, subway-dwelling zombies, cannibal midgets, and legions of homicidal madmen all run rampant. while end's first release science/fiction was filled with spooky space themes, this recording is on a totally different planet. sure, there are recognizable moments - surf rock guitars, crazed breakbeats, cop show riffs, theremins and moogs, screaming choirs, horn sections, spy music, japanese noise, scat vocals.... but they’ve all been forced together into a frenzied mass as catchy as it is schizophrenic. there are jump-up-and-down rock numbers, sitar spaghetti westerns and even apocalyptic sing alongs. not for the feint of heart, this is the musical equivalent of a car crash. 11 essential anthems for your own personal apocalypse. this cd version of hymen records' ¥049 contains 2 extra tracks plus 3 messer chups remixes.
